Beizhakou Town (simplified Chinese: 北闸口镇; traditional Chinese: 北閘口鎮; pinyin: Běizhákǒu Zhèn) is a town situated in the center of Jinnan District, Tianjin, China. It borders Haitang Subdistrict and Xianshuigu Town to its north, Shuangqiaohe and Xiaozhan Towns to its east, as well as Balitai Town to its west. It also has an exclave within Balitai Town. The town has a population of 45,741 as of 2010.
In 1875, a division of the Huai Army was stationed in Tianin, and constructed Xuanhui Sluice in the area, where several smaller rivers flow into the Yueya River down south. The Sluice and the surrounding settlement later earned the name "Beizhakou" (Chinese: 北闸口; lit. 'North Sluice Mouth').
